Samurai Equine

And she will be loved~

How goes it, my crowd? 

I have very little to report.  Well I guess I have seen some trailers. The newest Spider-Man trailer was both tons of hype yet still let me wanting more. And there is going to be a live action Halo series. I hope it turns out good. The costume design looks great, but that could be the height of the production. Hard to know based on one teaser trailer. Also, I missed out on that generation of games, so I never played Halo.

Also... Naruto characters in Fortnite!

I know, not something I usually would report on. BUT! It gives me an excuse to finally use THESE...!

Take care, my crowd. 

It's time once again to Equip the Script! Can you guess the right answer? 

In Episode 3, The Ticket Master, Twilight gets caught in the rain. Rarity finds her and says "Twilight! It's raining." To which, Twilight sarcastically responds "No. Really? What gave you that idea?". What was Rarity's reply as she came to Twilight's rescue?

A. "Come with me before you catch a cold!"
B. "Let's get you out of the cold!"
C. "You'll catch your death of cold out here!"
D. "It's dangerous to go alone! Take this."

And yes, the question is a trick question~!

 Hello there, my crowd! Welcome to my Weekly Musings: Orange Edition. 

[I ❤ JAPAN] -- [I ❤ THE COLOR RED] -- [I ❤ CELESTIA]

   Feel free to leave a video request. Your video will eventually be featured in a future Weekly Musings entry!   

Hey there, my crowd.  Hope your week's been better than mine. Shall we talk about it?

 I hate to start a weekly summary off with bad news, but I guess the biggest thing was learning that my uncle has COVID.  Based on how irresponsible he's been about it lately, I'm not surprised. I just hope that be the end of this next coming week, he'll be all better. And if he still hasn't gotten vaccinated, then I hope he will strongly reconsider.

 Sorry there is a lack of good news this week, but in slightly less bad news, the weather has been warming up again. It's tried to cool down again near the end of the week, but it hasn't gotten frosty cold again. Would be nice if it at least stayed cold enough to warrant a long sleeve shirt. 

 ...I didn't see any movies this week. Sorry.  I think the string of bad moments this week just kept me from seeing a good movie. Plus I am getting behind on my YouTube subscription videos again. But at least I am completing some projects I started.

 Zenkaiger 34: Spook Me Silly!  Watching any holiday episode out of season is going to be strange, but sometimes it can't be helped. The main draw to this episode was the ending, revealing Hakaizer's true identity. The reveal is actually not that big, they've been making it kind of obvious who he is. What makes it interesting is that only the other 4 Zenkaigers saw this reveal, not Kaito/Zenkaizer. They are stretching this out. I mostly expect Kaito to figure out his identity in the following episode, but I would be pleasantly surprised if they actually try to keep it hidden even longer.

That's it for now, my crowd.  Take care, and please value your health and your existence.

Did I share this? Can't remember. Either way, I know what I'm doing after Thanksgiving. Here's the trailer for Masters Of The Universe: Revelation Part II. This is going to be even more epic than before!

If I could begin to be half of what you think of me, I could do about anything~

Hey there, my crowd.

Today was not a great day for me. I don't know why. Maybe it was because I didn't get to relax as much as I wanted, maybe it's because a lot of my friends are just going through bad times right now, or maybe it's just me. Either way, I've been feeling kind of sad today. Melancholy, as it were.  I try not to talk about it when I feel this way. I don't want others to feel bad for me, even though I know keeping my thoughts and feelings to myself is not healthy. Still, this will pass. I'm sure I'll feel happier tomorrow.

Did anyone notice I finished making a Thanksgiving banner for my profile page? I tried to make it a celebration of both American and Japanese Thanksgiving. I'm also working on a new Thanksgiving-themed vector of my OC, which will be used for my avatar here. My current username gives away what I'll be going for. Nothing wrong with the current avatar I'm using, made by the awesome @Kujamih. I just like making my own vectors and ref images whenever I can. If I can finish it before the 20th, then I'll be happy.

Take care, my crowd. Stay safe, healthy, and happy.

Let's proofread the script~! It's time now to go over the results of Tuesday's game!

THE ★★★★★ S-RANK WINNERS ARE: @TomDaBombMLP

THE 1st PLACE WINNERS ARE: @Pastel Heart, @Thunder Light, @PawelS, @Rising Dusk, & @Treeglow Flicker

THE 2nd PLACE WINNERS ARE: None this time. Upgrade.

The answer was D. "Simmer down, Sally. She ain't no spy, but she sure knows what's going on, don't cha Twilight?" And the twist was that Twilight was quoted incorrectly. She actually said "Elements, elements, elements... Ugh! How can I stop Nightmare Moon without the Elements of Harmony?!".

Congrats to all the winners. And because I got confused and made a clerical error with the options, an error that I never intended, I decided to be nice about it. As compensation, no one will be 2nd Place winners this time. Next time, I'll definitely do a better job of double checking the script so that I don't make any unintentional errors again.

Take care, my crowd.  

It's true, some days are dark and lonely. And maybe you feel sad, but...

How goes it, my crowd?

Today started off so well. I've been working on artwork, I got more minutes for my phone, and I even had my favorite fast food restaurant for dinner. But then I learned something bad... I just knew it would happen...

My uncle has Covid.  The guy is a stubborn fool. Despite all the good reasons my family gave him (especially because my mother works in a hospital and has seen Covid at its worst), despite the fact that everyone else in our family got vaccinated, he stubbornly chose not to. He said there were many things about the vaccinations that made him skeptical, and he'd only get it if his job depended on it. Now has a to quarantine for a while. He's lucky he's still young enough that he won't end up on a ventilator or something, but he has to be very careful now and follow doctor's orders to the letter.

He's definitely got a few I-Told-You-So's coming his way. But until then, keep my uncle in your thoughts and prayers, everyone.

Take care, my crowd.

It's time once again to Equip the Script! Can you guess the right answer? 

In Episode 2, Friendship is Magic Part II, Twilight Sparkle desperately tries to find the right book while saying "Elements, elements; where are the Elements of Harmony?! Ugh!" Immediately, Rainbow Dash swoops in and says "And just what are the Elements of Harmony? And how did you know about Nightmare Moon, huh?! Are you a spy?" However, Applejack wrangles her in while saying what?

A. "Lay down, Sally. She ain't no spy, but she sure knows what's going on here, don't cha Twilight?"
B. "Long tall, Sally. She ain't no spy, but she sure knows what's going on here, don't cha Twilight?"
C. "Let's do it to it, Sally. She ain't no spy, but she sure knows what's going on here, don't cha Twilight?"
D. "Simmer down, Sally. She ain't no spy, but she sure knows what's going on here, don't cha Twilight?"

And yes, the question is a trick question~!

• There is no limit on who can win this game.
• Answer the question correctly, become a 1st place winner.
• Find the trick part of the question, and you become an S-Rank winner.
• Comment, leave extra quotes or trivia, or do anything else, and you get a bonus hug.

Good luck, my crowd. 

Don't lose your way~!

How goes it, my crowd? 

Well, I'm a little sad. Last week had lots of cold weather, it even got a little frosty at one point. But then on Sunday, it warmed back up, and today was no exception. I don't want it to be warm! I want cool-to-cold fall weather!  I enjoy being able to wear all my cold weather clothes.

Another thing is that I feel a little disappointed. When my Windows 10 Product Key stopped working, I tried to contact the person on eBay that I bought my computer from. I asked them late on Saturday about it. It's been two days, and no response. That's plenty of time to get back to me, and I've heard nothing. Guess I'll have to buy a new key after all. Still, these are all minor annoyances. If this is the worst the week can get, I'll be fine.

Take care, my crowd. 

Happy Birthday, my dear friend!!  

  Hello there, my crowd! Welcome to my Weekly Musings: Red Edition. 

[I ❤ JAPAN] -- [I ❤ THE COLOR RED] -- [I ❤ CELESTIA]

   Feel free to leave a song request. Your song will eventually be featured in a future Weekly Musings entry!   

So how goes it, my crowd?  I have so much to tell! Let's begin.

 I can hardly call it the biggest thing I did, but I celebrated Dia De Lost Muertos (The Day Of The Dead). I would have loved to make a big celebratory meal that I could share with my family, but it was a Monday, and my family was incapable of getting together on a Monday. We're all busy working by that point.  But one of my uncles made a homemade meal for all of us on Friday, and that was some good eating.

 Such a good week for Tokusatsu! That was perhaps the biggest thing this week for me. Shout Factory released Ryuki on streaming (I think it was just on Twitch for now), Zero-One is up for pre-order, and a long awaited OOO 10 Years after movie was announced! What a time to be a Kamen Rider fan!!  The only downside was, while deleting old fansubs and making room in my USB flashdrives, I learned one of them is glitchy. I forgot that about it after all this time, and it's only gotten worse as I've gotten older. Guess I need to buy a new one to replace it. One step forward, one step back~

 Thankfully, it's not all bad. I got a new pair of readers glasses, two new Sonic soundtracks, I discovered a few other albums I might want to get, and I'm hyped for this new Pibby show that Adult Swim might be making.  The hype is real.

 I decided to skip watching Tokusatsu this time. I still plan to see some movies eventually, but what I saw this week threw off my usual viewing habits. First thing was another Elements of Justice episode dropped recently! I had to make time to watch that. The 3D models for the Ace Attorney characters are a little unsettling, but the story is still great!  I've started reorganizing my likes and favorites on YouTube; and that will take a while. Furthermore, I also saw...

 Transformers Cyberverse 327: No Time To Be Saur!  Just when I thought it was over, this charming Transformers cartoon came back, and with avengeance no less! It's rare when they do, but once again they acknowledge death as part of their lore. It seems recolors are canon in this universe. I wasn't expecting to see Trypticon, nor was I expecting to see an origin story for Volcanicus. This is some deep lore stuff here! I am not sure how the fans feel about it. I feel like these characters were reinvented to fit this universe, but other characters were also reinvented, so I'm fine with it! And all of it in the middle of a peace treaty between Autobots and Decepticons; something I've been wanting to see since the beginning. Best of all, this extra-long special is only part 1! There is more to come!

That's all for now, my crowd.  Take care, and have some cheese.

I've been mentioning that rock music is starting to slowly have a resurgence in the world of popular, mainstream music, right? Well, does this count? Sure it's by a YouTuber, but it's rock. YouTubers are famous, and this particular video aired on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim block somehow. ... I kind of like it. This is "Flux" by Poppy.

Hey there, my crowd!

Can we take a moment to tell @Pastel Heart how awesome she is?  I don't do these things very often, but I see some of my friends doing it for others, so I want to do my part too.
Maybe try to give her a hug, if you can. I heard she likes those. 

I wonder who she is looking at. 

(Art by Hurt)

How goes it, my crowd? 

Sorry I've been largely quiet this week. I've got a lot on my plate. I've got responsibilities that I don't feel motivated to take on. The weather has been changing, cold for the most part. I think the biggest thing that has thrown me off is how my Windows 10 product key basically expired. I am trying to contact the person who sold me the computer and see if there's anything I need to do, but I may need to buy a new code. Everything says that once I buy a personal, private use code, it will never expire. I want to do this before I upgrade to Windows 11, which looks promising. But it's not all bad. I recently got the soundtrack for Sonic Colors Ultimate Edition. 

It's been a BIG week for Tokusatsu, announcements, though!  Shout Factory premiered Kamen Rider Ryuki, hopefully it will come to streaming platforms soon. More importantly, they have put up Kamen Rider Zero-One physical release up for pre-order. I REALLY want to get it because pre-orders come with an exclusive poster! Not only that, it comes with the first movie and some specials, so Shout really went all out for this one! Even so, the price is around $50, and I almost feel like I'm paying Japanese prices at that level. I may need to wait on that one... Speaking of waiting, I have dreamed of it, but it's finally happening. Kamen Rider OOO is getting a 10 Years After story! FINALLY! I really do hope this will be the happy conclusion that reunites Ankh with Eiji once and for all. It's been something they've teased for so long, and this movie looks like it will be jam packed with so many extras.

Is anyone else here interested in Pibby? Just me? 

Take care, my crowd. 

Let's proofread the script~! It's time now to go over the results of Tuesday's game!

THE ★★★★★ S-RANK WINNERS ARE: @TomDaBombMLP, @PawelS, & @Astral Soul

THE 1st PLACE WINNERS ARE: @Sparklefan1234, @Pastel Heart, @Deae Rising Shine~, & @Rising Dusk

THE 2nd PLACE WINNERS ARE: None this time.

The answer was B. "No! All the ponies in this town are crazy!" And the twist was that Spike was quoted incorrectly. He actually said "Hey Twilight! Pinkie Pie's starting Pin the Tail on the Pony! Wanna play?".

Congrats to all the winners. Looks like I've got another 9 seasons worth of material to quiz you all on again.  And maybe I'll thrown in some quotes from the movies and specials as well, if I feel up to it.

Take care, my crowd.  

It's time for... You guessed it... A NEW GAME!!!
This time, we're completing the quotes. Let's call it... "Equip the Script". Can you guess the right answer? 

In Episode 1, Friendship is Magic Part I, Spike enters Twilight Sparkle's room and says "Twilight! What are you doing in here? The party's amazing! Wanna join?"
What was Twilight's response?

A. "No! This town is crazy!"
B. "No! All the ponies in this town are crazy!"
C. "No! Every pony here is crazy!"
D. "Yes! I'd love to party with all these crazy ponies!"

And yes, the question is a trick question. 

• There is no limit on who can win this game.
• Answer the question correctly, become a 1st place winner.
• Find the trick part of the question, and you become an S-Rank winner.
• Comment, leave extra quotes or trivia, or do anything else, and you get a bonus hug.

Good luck, my crowd. 

Oh, it's time again for No Nut Nov-- Oops. I just got an acorn. I guess this means I loose. 

How goes it, my crowd? 

I am currently in the middle of changing things up for November. I plan on making a Thanksgiving-themed banner and avatar. The avatar I have right now is just a place-holder. (I also hope @TheRockARooster and @SolarFlare13 enjoyed my Halloween banner, which I still have up right now, since it has Goji in it.) 

And today was a good Dia De Los Muertos for me. Not exactly how I wanted to celebrate it, but at least I got to remember those who are no longer with us, and that is the most important part. That and playing "Day of the Dead" by Voltaire. Can't celebrate without that. 

Take care, my crowd. 

 Hello there, my crowd! Welcome to my Weekly Musings: Orange Edition. 

[I ❤ JAPAN] -- [I ❤ THE COLOR RED] -- [I ❤ CELESTIA]

   Feel free to leave a video request. Your video will eventually be featured in a future Weekly Musings entry!   

Have you been thoroughly haunted, my crowd?  Let's talk about it~

 The biggest thing this week for me was Halloween!  I ate some candy; not too much. I got to watch the shows I planned. I originally planned to watch some tokusatsu movies, but the ones I had my eyes on still aren't subbed yet. So I decided to settle for something else...

 I should go ahead and mention this, I guess... My aunt is not doing so good in terms of health, again. I've reported on this many times back when I did my weekly summaries on DeviantArt. Part of the reason why I don't want to keep reporting on it is because it could be another false alarm. She could just be having another dive of bad health before she gets better again. Still, this one has got my family upset again. Just so everyone knows, if anything happens to my aunt, this is not a sudden development. It's something she has been battling with for a while now. We all expect the worst but hope for the best.

 There were some other cool things that came out of this week. Shout Factory will be releasing their official sub of Kamen Rider Ryuki soon, Part 2 of He-Man Revelations was teased, and I got a haircut. All of that is pretty sweet.  And while I did just finish celebrating Halloween, I still have Dia De Los Muertos look forward to.

 I decided to watch the first episode of Kamen Rider ReVice. We're coming up on 10 episodes now. I'm still in a tough position. It won't be long before a quarter of the show is over, and I'm still in the same position I was when I started. The only dedicated group keeping up with this show is one I am professionally against. I still don't morally agree with one of the main actors. Honestly, I just wish Over-Time would stop being wishy-washy about this and just get back to subbing Rider. It's been long enough to reveal that Toei's official YouTube channel isn't going to sub more than 2 episodes of any recent Rider show. They don't seem to have enough money with their head branch to clear more than two episodes per show. I think the fansub groups are mostly in the clear again. 

 ReVice 01: What's Your Vice?!  I must say, I am liking this introduction. It feels so different. If Zenkaiger is written like an old school Sentai, they found a boring way to do it, which is such a waste of the potential they started with. ReVice, at least this first episode, seems to be written like an old school Kamen Rider; but they found a way to mix things up so that it's still interesting and engaging! Makes it harder for me to decide if I want to keep watching or not. Basically, if the following episodes deliver as well as this one, then I'd keep coming back for more!

 Zenkaiger 33: Nothing Learned.  A school episode, with a subtle Great Teacher Onizuka reference that I doubt most kids would recognize these days. I guess it's cool that GTO still has a long lasting legacy after all this time, but I'm not sure why it's here. Either way, the episode was just meh for me.

That's it for now, my crowd.  Take care, and don't worry, the witching hour's over.

If I have to be oddly addicted to this, then so do you, my crowd! This is "Purple Phoenix Tie Dye #shorts" by Meo's Tie Dyes.

Happy Birthday, my friend!  

I will always be loyal to Celestia, but once a year, I have to give Luna her dues.

HAPPY NIGHTMARE NIGHT/HALLOWEEN, MY CROWD!! 

At least, I am sure it will be by the time you read this. For some of you, it may all ready be over. For me, I'm posting this a few minutes before the 31st, so close enough. I usually post my weekly summaries on Sundays, so this will be the only chance I get to post this. Either way, I am ready!  I've got candy, I've got my favorite Halloween-themed shows cued up, and I'm all set.

Today was a great day for me! So many trailers recently. The Cowboy Bebop trailer does make the show look a little better, though it does have an extra layer of sassy that I'm not sure it needs. I learned Kamen Rider Ryuki will be officially available on November. But the best trailer to drop was Part 2 of He-Man Revelations! And this 2nd part looks way better than the first.  So hyped!

Take care, my crowd. Try to not let the spirits haunt you too much. 

And I say to myself, what a wonderful day~ 

(Art by @DivineCurse1000)

How goes it, my crowd? 

I've just been editing random videos for fun, getting use to Filmora and all that. Sorry for the lack of updates yesterday; couldn't think of a new game to do. I was going to maybe do a game based on MLP The Movie (G4), but I couldn't think of a single game to play.

Anyone notice the new reacts?  I'm not going to waste my time with the candy reacts since they'll go away when the holiday is over.
I wish we could keep the Derpy Thanks; it's way better. However, the original Hug and Excited are way better. The rest, I could give or take. Equally good. I base most my thoughts on how clearly I can make out the tiny images. What do you all think?

Take care, my crowd. 

You are still missed, my friend. But if you ever do come back, I hope you see this...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!  

The stars are aligned, the saviors are here, let's do the kyutama dance! 

How goes it, my crowd? 

Today was a good start of the week for me.

I got a haircut, got some groceries, and went out to eat at one of my favorite fast food restaurants. I was surprised to see I had TONS of notifications waiting for me today, but I did my best to catch up.

I am going to try squeezing in some Tokusatsu movies this week. It's going to be tight because of the holiday, but I'll try. Also, I got a nice assortment of various candies.  Just need to watch all my favorite Halloween movies and specials, and it'll be a great holiday. I'm so ready for this!

Take care, my crowd. 

  Hello there, my crowd! Welcome to my Weekly Musings: Red Edition. 

[I ❤ JAPAN] -- [I ❤ THE COLOR RED] -- [I ❤ CELESTIA]

   Feel free to leave a song request. Your song will eventually be featured in a future Weekly Musings entry!   

Hi there, my crowd. How goes it this week?  Things are about to get spoopy~!

 I guess the biggest thing that happened this week was my closest cousin came down to visit the family.  It's always a treat when that happen.

 The next biggest thing is, I learned that a new fansub group is working on an old tokusatsu title that I love, Tomica Hero Rescue Force! Thing is, I really hope this group goes all the way. Their webpage makes them look like one of those groups that starts off strong, then disappears without warning. I hope that's not the case, even though they've only posted 1 episode and it's been weeks later. There are some quality issues they need to work on. Their video file sizes are way too big. I also find it weird that they subbed the OP theme, but not the ED theme or Next Episode preview.  They said they are a SCRUB group, but who's work are they scrubbing? TV-Nihon? That wouldn't explain the parts they didn't sub. Maybe they'll issue a V2 translation or something...

 No movies this week, and possibly next. I want to take it easy for the holiday.  Hope everyone is ready for the fun and frights~!

 I finished watching Ducktales, the 2017 reboot! Easily one of the best reboots in a long, long time.  Seeing it end after three seasons leaves me feeling a little sad. It felt like it ended too soon; especially when the original cartoon STILL has a bigger number of episodes and seasons! This reboot left some plotlines unfinished, and others had potential for even more stories down the road. Heck, they folded Darkwing Duck and Donald Duck into this reboot. I am sure there are characters and stories from all 3 classic cartoons they could have brought in. (I can even think of a few myself!) But at least the show got a satisfying, conclusive ending. Now I can only hope that, since many of the original voice actors from the vintage cartoon are now longer with us, Disney will continue to use David Tennant and the other voice actors for future appearances of Scrooge, the young duck trio, Della, and so on.

 Zenkaiger 32: The Pauper & The Pest!  Well this is just what I really needed; to see Kaito's new canon weapon in action. I wanted to see him get creative with it, and he did. The body swapping gimmick of the episode was also fine, but they didn't really take it as far as they could have. And I know the ending was trying to make Stacey more sympathetic, but I can't help but wonder if his past was falsified and he's actually related to Kaito's family somehow. I could honestly see him as, perhaps, Kaito's half brother or something. There is a certain family-like resemblance.

That's all for now, my crowd.  Take care, and stay spooky and scary.

Every once in a while, I get in the mood for some low down blues. And thanks to my friend @Stone Cold Steve Tuna, I have another piece to add to my collection. This is "Born Under A Bad Sign" by Albert King. That ain't no lie.

It's true, no one can groove like the girls with the hooves~ It's time now to go over the results of Tuesday's game!

THE ★★★★★ S-RANK WINNERS ARE: @Astral Soul

THE 1st PLACE WINNERS ARE: @Rising Dusk, @Sparklefan1234, @TomDaBombMLP

THE 2nd PLACE WINNERS ARE: Didn't feel like it this time.

Sorry this is so late. My Friday this time around was JAM PACKED! Anyways, this was just me fooling around... I still don't have a new game yet. Equestria Girls didn't seem to go over as well as I thought, but there are other pony-related things I could do for this game. Like the FiM movie! But no one would be interested in that... Would they? 

Take care, my crowd.

Hello, my crowd.  What's up?

Wow. My last status update really proves how sleepy I must have been feeling. I didn't even mention Applejack Day.  Sorry AJ. Hope everyone enjoyed it, though.

I've been having a good time. I have managed to recover some fansubs that I thought were lost to time; and even more then that, I found a fansub group that is tackling an old favorite of mine!  I really hope they go all the way. They are just a small time group; the kind that looks like they could disappear or disband at any moment without warning. I am hoping that's not the case.

Take care, my crowd. 

To fly with the princess is truly a treat~

Hey there, my crowd!  Hope you're doing well.

So I finally saw the rest of Ducktales Season 3, and here are my thoughts...
"Let's Get Dangerous" is still my favorite Ducktales episode. When did Dewey get that sword? And as the past begins to unfold, it's all beginning to make sense now; plus Scrooge is doing the move! Great yuletide extravagances, that Santa episode was so good, I think I'm in tears! The Kit Cloudkicker episode, however, was kind of a disappointment (feel free to ask why, because I have got some thoughts to share~). But that finale~ OH SO GOOD!!!  So many feels!

You know, in some ways, I feel sad. That reboot was so good, yet it was over too soon. A reboot that good deserved to have more episodes than the original cartoon, and there was so much material they could have drawn from too.  Still, I don't regret the ride at all.

Is anyone ready for Halloween/Nightmare Night? I think I am.  Got movies and a bunch of other things planned out for the big night.

Take care, my crowd.
